Groundhog day 16:57 - Jan 27 with 3841 views | Dando | Too narrow, create barely anything, no wingers, hope Smith brings us back into the game when things are too late. Bidwell unable to attack, Pav left out, team cant score. I wanted Ollie to succeed here but he seems to do the same thing every week and think we will get a different result. What makes him think this way of playing will suddenly bring results? Letting in 2 goals after they have a man sent off, and barely coming close to scoring is not acceptable | | | | |

Groundhog day on 17:03 - Jan 27 with 3775 views | PinnerPaul | Well the 8 points in 6 games recently and the good home wins against decent sides before that is probably what makes him think it does work sometimes. | | | |
Groundhog day on 17:06 - Jan 27 with 3744 views | bosh67 | But it doesn't, does it? It's so predictable and narrow. Ollie only subs as a reaction at it usually when we are protecting a 2 nil defeat. Not good enough. | |

Groundhog day on 17:27 - Jan 27 with 3613 views | Dando | I dont agree with this. Of course we have won some games, but overall we have been predictable, narrow and are living off the past thinking the 3 in the middle are going to carry us through. The only pace and creativity we have in the squad, are not getting games and when they do they are out of position. We are so easy to defend against until Smith comes on to win a few headers and then hope we might feed off a scrap. Bidwell continues to play out of position. he cant run at players, he just turns back or plays it sideways and our attack is over. No threat on the right without Pav either. Its just the same thing week in week out. I feel bad for Oteh, who is starved of the ball because of these long diagonal hopeful balls we keep trying to play, which never work | | | |

Groundhog day on 17:38 - Jan 27 with 3549 views | QPR_John | So it works sometimes, a stopped clock is right twice a day, but surely that is no praise. When it does not work there is no fallback. What are the tactics then to play the same system and hope | | | |
Groundhog day on 17:53 - Jan 27 with 3489 views | colinallcars | You'd think Bidwell would say “ ere guv, I can't keep chargin' up and down the pitch every week like this. It don't work and I'm no good at it either”. | | | |

Groundhog day on 00:28 - Jan 28 with 3129 views | derbyhoop | I can only base my assessment on the stats and the reports. 14 efforts on goal but only 2 on target isn't good enough. It's been a similar pattern all season. Our accuracy is poor. Add in that we cannot keep a clean sheet and these are the 2 main reasons why we are a bottom third side. By the sound of yesterday, too many players had a mare, with Freeman, Scowen and Washington being virtually anonymous. Our position is not surprising. Losing to the Wurzels was not surprising. But we need to win the upcoming home games. Somewhere along the line were going to have to hit the target and keep a clean sheet. The sooner the better. | |
